multi tasking is great...

On hold with Time Warner Crapple, holding Matt, looking at pictures and updating my blog. yay! Came home after making $200 in commission and almost getting killed by two dogs, changed, shoved some food down (hadn't taken a break all day), Sean left for school and I commenced my OTHER full time job of being a mom. Except I get breaks :-)--but no pay! I fed Matt some sweet potatoes today.

Ok, well...attempted to feed.

mmm...

those are some GOOD sweet potatoes!

SEE? I CAN clean myself up!

Granted, not very well...

But who cares?

Look how much he "ate"!

Ok, clean-up time! Oh, by the way Mom, there's a suprise in my diaper for you.

Unintentional Day Off

I wish I worked today! But, having been sick the past two days I decided I HAD to take Saturday off if I was going to recover. And it was good, because I went to bed at 8:30 last night thinking I wasn't tired and slept until 10:30 this morning! I really needed it.
So today I just hung around, didn't do much. Sean took me out to lunch at Chili's and I got yummy portabello mushroom fajitas. Matt somehow managed to sleep.
Anyway, this is just a quick blog just to put up some pictures of Sean feeding Matt his last container of pureed peas. ...yum...
Well, at least Matt likes them! He was screaming, and as soon as Sean put that spoon in his mouth he was all smiles and happiness.

Mom! Trying to eat my hand here!

Please take note of the carefully deposited pea puree in his nose.

Sean is smiling because he knows personally how good those peas are. Seriously. I caught him in the kitchen last night, sitting on the floor making airplane noises as he "flew" the mashed peas into the "airport". He denies the whole thing.

At this point Matt is wondering if there really are only peas in my concoction. I mean, the "pre-made" "pure" baby food.

Our poor starving dog who has been reduced to begging for baby food. What a sad life.

Don't point that camera at me like I made the mess!!!!!!

Yeah. Not me. I swear.

Anyway, time for bed!

Six Flags!!!

Yesterday was my best friend Jana's birthday! So, as her birthday present, we went to six flags!
Here is the birthday girl driving. YAY!

First, we ate at Denny's.

Where the waiter was awesome up until he completely ditched us and disappeared. I think he got fired for giving services too good for Denny's.
Here are some shots of six flags from above.





Cool, huh? We had tons of fun. I groomed my brother-in-law's Golden retriever Sugar on Sunday, as as a tip he gave me this:





Look, Apple may be a big, evil corporation, but damn, those things are cool! It's only one gig, but it holds all my non i-tunes songs that are on my computer. Cool huh?
And almost lastly, here are my six flags souvenirs.


I love Daffy. :-D

Couldn't resist.
And lastly, here is what Matt is doing while I write all this.

Woo hoo!!!

More Peas, Peas!

Ok, Matt is not wanting to go to sleep! No wonder, he has had a wonder-filled day. First, we got this:

(closer)

from Jean (my mother-in-law),
and Matt had lots of fun watching me struggle to put it together.
Then he was hungry.
So, after feeding him most of a bottle, and when he was in a reasonably good mood, I decided it was time for his first food. Sweet potatoes? Nah. Squash? Nah. Banannas? No...hmm...pears? Nope. Oh, duh, EVERY kid's favorite food! PEAS!!!!!

So I fed it to him, and instead of getting a nasty look on his face and spitting it out, he gobbled it down as best as he could (which wasn't that well), and decided,

eventually,

That I wasn't doing it right,

and he would just do it himself!





Then after clean-up, it was sleepy time.

So, goodnight everyone!

cat in lap--posting pictures

Nostromo likes to butt my hand as I am typing.
Anyway, been pretty busy and the times I haven't been busy working, cleaning, doing household stuff and taking care of Matt, I really haven't felt like updating my blog.
But here are some pics from the last few days.

Some evil person likes to take pictures of me sleeping!!!! Must have been after the morning feeding, sometimes I like to cuddle with him and go back to sleep for his morning nap.

tummy time?

happy happy tummy time!!!

looking confused is my specialty.

what?

huh??

My dog is so nice. This picture was taken right before Matt decided to grab a fistful of her beard next to her nose and twist and pull. She just laid her head down and gave me a very sad look.

This picture is forshadowing the devious toddler Matt is soon to become.

He fell asleep like this yesterday. He did have both feet in his hands, but let one slip before we could find the camera.
Anyway, there ya go. Some pictures to keep you going until I can post again! Well, Matt is asleep and I can almost hear the timer in his head! I have about 20 minutes to make/eat breakfast, then it's Matt Central Time until about 3 or 4 pm.
Blog to ya later!!!!
Ok FINE.
HERE.

You guys are never satisfied until you see the real star of the show. Sheesh!

yikes

Lol, I know, no point in keeping a blog if I don't update it! Busy busy!!! Grooming full time and being a mom full time is time consuming. I will be transferring to the Hemet store. (Petsmart). The reason I didn't transfer before was because I didn't think they had the business, but they do! And they need groomers! So, looks like I'll be working 2 minutes from home! And since I need to lose the baby weight, I will be biking to work. And be saving on gas! Yay! So, as usual, I'm busy! So I will post later! Lol...probably in a month :-P
